Spearheaded by first cousins Kimberly Tryba and Lynn Tryba, The Family Treebark is designed to serve as a geneological hub for the Tryba family, tracing not only its roots, but also its far-reaching branches.
Got a family story to share? Where we came from, who our family members are/were, our achievements and challenges — we’d like them all!
Feel free to post photos, scans of letters, documents, etc. — and let’s not forget family/signature recipes! I think we all remember the from-scratch fried chicken, the seafood newburg, “No Name”, and dozens of other dishes that communicated “love”…
Every story is important – so if you’d like to contribute a recollection, but feel that it might be a bit sensitive in nature, either include it here with names removed, or please feel free to forward it to either of us via email, snail mail… or just give us a call! We’d love to hear from you.
You can reach us directly at ktryba@gmail.com and lynntryba@yahoo.com; thank you for your participation!

Hi Kim & Lynn,
I think it is great that you are doing this! I am sure you remember us digging up all of Gigi’s carrots and potatoes EARLY one year to stockpile in our “fort”. I remember him being very appreciative of all our hard work!
I never realized how pissed he must have been until I started gardening myself. I do think it is cool to realize that Gigi, my dad and I shared a love of gardening. It must be in our blood! I think seeing the common thread that has been passed down in our lives is really interesting. Much more interesting than the psorasis that got passed down to me anyways! Haha

Oh yes… and then there’s the time we all pretended to be farm animals and ate grass off the front lawn… we’re nothing if not creative!! 😉
Thanks for your comments – keep ’em coming!
